Example: It might sound like an unpopular opinion, but movies make me uncomfortable. The Incredibles is a film everyone loves that I don’t despite the massive success and praise.

The Amazing World of Gumball is a series I despise too, but I think we can all agree on that.

Anime, the sexualization in it is very uncomfortable to suffer through along with the cringe cliches

[–] bananaghost@kbin.social 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I think discrediting all anime because of the series that do that is excessive. Anime is just a medium to tell a story, not a genre. You could even use cartoon as a synonym. Do all cartoons make you feel the same?

That said, I agree with you that the sexualization in many series is uncomfortable and I don't like it either. And I admit that lately many series (especially those aimed at teenagers) resort to this to gain views. But it's sad when someone discredits the entire medium just because of the series that do that.
